Colleges’ career outcome stats often omit the knowledge rate. Here’s what to ask them
The knowledge rate is the percentage of graduates who shared their outcomes with their college after graduating and that the college can reasonably verify.
When high school students and their families investigate which college is the best fit, they will inevitably be inundated with various facts and figures. Brochures and websites might highlight the school’s dining halls or student-led clubs and activities. But one of the most important statistics for students and families to consider when choosing a college is the career outcomes of its graduates.
